A NIGHT IN LOGROÑO
Inspired by Rob & Sam's trip to Rioja!
Some holidays are just too good not to share!
After a wonderful trip (courtesy of Fine Wines Direct) to Logroño in the heart of Spain's Rioja region, we came home with some fantastic memories, a new appreciation for Spanish wines and, most importantly, a serious obsession with the incredible food!
So, we thought… why not bring a little bit of Logroño to The GyG?
Join us on Thursday 12th November at 7pm for a very special evening inspired by the bustling tapas bars of Calle del Laurel.
Five courses of delicious Spanish-inspired dishes, featuring some of our favourite discoveries from the trip with paired wines from the wonderful Marqués de Cáceres winery in Rioja.
Expect bold flavours, fabulous wines, a few dishes you might not have tried before and a proper taste of Spain.

Good morning you beautiful people on this beautiful day!! ☀️

If you’re heading up the Garth today, why not reward yourself afterwards with one of our famous Carpark Carvery hot roast rolls?

We’ve ordered EXTRA this week after selling out early last Sunday… so hopefully there’ll be enough to go around!

Walk the Garth. Earn the roll.
Sundays done properly at The GyG.

The brilliant Tom was there capturing all the action at our Sausage & C***r Festival 2026 — and the full gallery is now ready to have a look through.
There are some absolute crackers in there!

A huge thank you again to everyone who came along and made the weekend what it was. Looking through these has already got us thinking about 2027…

WE’RE ON THE HUNT FOR THE BEST PUBS IN WALES 🍺

Episode one took us to The Gwaelod y Garth Inn, a cracking little pub at the foot of Garth Mountain, near Cardiff.

It was absolutely heaving when we arrived, but it still felt warm, friendly and full of character. Inside, it’s dark and moody, with exposed stone, old-looking floors and lots of little details that make it feel like a proper pub.

Outside, Llio was delighted with the hanging baskets. You can tell they’ve actually made an effort to make the whole place look lovely, which goes a long way with her 🌸

There’s a great choice of changing cask ales, craft b**r and local b**r, plus plenty of pub snacks. But the homemade pickled egg was the winner. You hardly see them behind a bar anymore, and Nicky was thrilled.

We didn’t eat this time, but so many people have told us the food is really good, so we’re very keen to return.

Apparently, you can have THREE meats with your Sunday roast, which is practically unheard of. I just hope there’s a Yorkshire pudding with every meat, because Yorkshire puddings should never be limited to beef. I will not be taking questions on this.

They’ll even wrap up your Sunday roast so you can walk up Garth Mountain and eat it at the top. Such a lovely idea.

It’s extremely dog-friendly too, and they even make a Sunday dinner for dogs. Derek will be joining us next time once he hears about that.

A cracking pub, lovely service and definitely somewhere we want to revisit for food.

Could this be one of the best pubs in Wales?

Follow our new series as we travel around Wales looking for brilliant Welsh pubs, and tell us which one we should visit next.

Save this one for your next walk up the Garth 🍺
